Positive and Negative Effects of Consuming Excess Protein

PROTEIN

Proteins are derived from protos or proteius, which means “primarily” in Greek. The discovery of this chemical molecule was successfully introduced by Jöns Jakob Berzelius, a Swedish chemist in 1838. With these findings, it accurately concluded that protein is a core role in organ systems of living organisms including microorganisms. The components of the protein molecule itself contain carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen and phosphorus in charge of restoring damaged muscle cell tissue.

PROTEIN FUNCTIONS

Protein is often a delicious meal for human organs, especially when the muscles that require the molecule. Besides the protein serves as a second energy source after carbohydrates, it is also useful to regulate the balance of acid-base levels in the body. At the age of the child, proteins are helpful in forming growth in brain cell performance, but in adulthood protein acts as a builder and repair of damaged cells and muscle tissue.

LACK & STRENGTH

Interesting question that deserves to be listened, whether the deficiency or excess consumption of protein can be bad for the body?

Deficiency:

Of course the answer is less careful if both occur, the lack or excess obviously very detrimental to the body especially if the condition to the shortfall. Lack of protein will certainly have adverse effects on the body such as: hair loss, difficult bowel movements, brain performance slowdown, weakness, Kwasiorkor (hungry hunger) in children, nail growth slows down and the worst to a low heart rate.

Advantages:

Similarly on the contrary, if consuming excessive protein certainly not wise if not balanced with extra activities as well, such as exercise and so forth. Medically a person doing a mediocre daily activity in the sense of not doing exercise does not require excessive amounts of protein, but if it continues to consume excessively, it will affect the fat deposits caused by the protein content exceeds the body’s required capacity. So that the excess protein will be wasted and fused into a heap of fat.

Here are some cases of controversy that we lift from various sources when consuming excessive protein:

Acne on the body.

Here’s a trivial problem that sometimes makes headache, why does this happen? When reviewed medically consume excessive protein does not cause the growth of acne in the body, this happens because of the lack of satisfaction of patients consuming the source of protein that he ate. It may be more suited to consume the type of protein derived from red meat is not sourced from white meat or vice versa. In addition, the lack of VIT E and VIT C also causes acne on the body.

Raising Acidosis.

As discussed in REPS in earlier magazine editions, acidosis is due to a lack of oxygen intake during anaerobic activity so that the level of lactic acid content increases during exercise. Lactic acid is produced because of the high consumption of foods containing cholesterol such as high salt, high oil and is not caused by excessive consumption of protein. Therefore consume healthy foods rich in balanced nutrition.

Allergy skin.

Allergens ingestan or some kind of allergy caused by consuming foods that are not in accordance with the resistance of one’s body. Inconsistency of a person’s metabolism of the type of food consumed results in skin irritation, such as skin peeling, itching. According to dr. Dr. Jay Kolls, director of the Richard King Mellon Foundation Institute for Pediatric Research, explains “We found that adding vitamin D not only substantially reduced the production of proteins that drive allergic reactions but also increased the production of proteins that can increase resistance to reactions allergy”.

Osteoporosis.

Osteoporosis is a clinical condition that causes bone to become porous. This is triggered by several factors, one of them by consuming excessive protein. Why? This is due to the large amount of protein absorbed by the kidneys; the productivity of these amino acids will increase, causing the acid content to dominate in red blood cell tissues. Eating foods high in calcium is very beneficial to offset and neutralize excess acid content, i.e. with oranges, broccoli, soy milk, salmon and radish. Besides consuming VIT D also serves as the absorption of calcium in the body, one of them by consuming cow’s milk, fish oil, and sunlight is the source of VIT.
